Debbie Duncan Poet Blank verse

Delights

See what delights I bring you this day.
Don't worry , I won't stay.
Across this crowded forest room,  
I see there are many like you.
The winds waft to the clouds above.
The woods are bright on this day.
Nymphs have come out to play.
Bees are out sipping the morning dew.
And you, you have no sweets, do you ?
The mountain streams, they call to you. 
And in my breast , the serpent does lie.
By the stream stand crowded trees this day.
All things flourish as you turn away. 
Oh, how I long to pass my days with you.
As the wandering forest dances away.

Poet Tacito June 16, 2013 at 2:49 PM Is the last line "wondering" or "wandering"? Either way, this piece hit quite hard. Strong ending. Debbie Duncan June 16, 2013 at 4:50 PM glad you like it Drake, yes wandering is better then wondering, even though you say either way is good ;}

Andrea Dietrich June 16, 2013 at 11:59 AM debbie, I too am awaiting that mini series, under the dome. There are SO many great shows on tv these days, I can hardly keep up with them. And READ a NOVEL? I don't even have time for it anymore. haha Debbie Duncan June 16, 2013 at 1:41 PM I know So many good shows for summer ;}
